The class is also likely to carry anti-ship and land-attack missiles, in addition to torpedoes. == Characteristics ==

A limited data available from open sources, suggest the following specifications for the submarine: • length — 113 m to 135-140 m • width — 10+ m to 13.5 m • displacement — 10 000 tons • underwater speed — up to 30-32 knots • operational depth — up to 500 m • crew — 100 seamen • mission duration — 90-120 days ==Units==

According to the open sources, a total of three or four submarines have been ordered.
